Qiao Yue knew that Zhou Yun was saying that for her own good, but she was going back to fulfill her mother’s wish of being filial to the old master. She must stay there until she fulfilled that wish.

However, Qiao Yue had yet to et the old master.

Qiao Yue rarely saw Zhou Yun angry. Zhou Yun was usually cold and indifferent, very much like a dical researcher. She couldn’t help but tease, “You know very well!”

Watching Qiao Yue act roguish again, Zhou Yun rolled her eyes and said unhappily, “I can’t help it either. Your eldest brother Qiao Xuan is an influential figure at the research institute. It’s impossible for not to pay attention to him.”

Qiao Yue raised her eyebrows. “Really? Qiao Xuan? The eldest brother that I’ve never t? He would ntion the Qiao family at the research institute?”

“He didn’t bring it up. It’s through the grapevine. Almost everything about Qiao Xuan had been dug out.”

Qiao Yue chuckled. “I didn’t expect people at the research institute to be so gossipy. I thought they were all nerds.”

As soon as Qiao Yue finished, she saw Zhou Yun shooting a death stare at her. She quickly corrected, “Except for our Yun.”

Zhou Yun ignored Qiao Yue and continued to insist, “You’ll only go back after your injuries heal.”

Although Qiao Yue wavered for a mont at Zhou Yun’s insistence, when she thought about Qiao Jing’s stoic face being left behind at the club for a day and a night, she felt that she needed to explain herself.

“It’s a minor injury. I’m okay. I still have things to deal with. I’ll co and find you when I’m done.”

After Qiao Yue finished, she contemplated and decided not to ask anyone to send her ho. Instead, she hailed a taxi.

Although she felt that Qiao Jing had left the club long ago, she still went there to try her luck. Perhaps Qiao Jing was still waiting for her?

The truth was that Qiao Jing had indeed left. As Chu Jia would be recuperating at the base for a while, Qiao Yue handed over running of the club to Chu Jia’s confidant at Yayi. That person was capable and honest.

When Qiao Yue was leaving the club, she bumped into the waitress she saved the other day.

At first, Qiao Yue didn’t notice, but the girl kept following her in the hallways, her intense gaze almost burning a hole in Qiao Yue’s back.

“Is there sothing?” Qiao Yue turned around and shouted at the girl.

The girl was standing behind a door at that mont. When she heard Qiao Yue’s question, she looked around and saw that she was the only one there, so she was sure that Qiao Yue was talking to her. She dawdled for a long ti before coming out from behind the door.

“Mr., Mr. Qiao. Hello, I’m Wei Xiao.”

“Hi.” Qiao Yue nodded lightly.

It wasn’t that Qiao Yue was deliberately acting cold. It was just that this girl’s cheeks were red, and she looked shy when she looked at her. Qiao Yue could only think of one possibility – this girl had taken a fancy to her. It wasn’t a good sign, so she had to quickly stop this person’s thoughts.

“Mr. Qiao, I, I’m here to thank you for your help.”

Imagine a handso boy saving you from a wretched old man in front of everyone, and then making this old man apologize to you in public. How many girls wouldn’t be tempted? Especially since this guy had good family background and was capable. He was any girl’s first choice for a boyfriend!

It was a pity that Qiao Yue was born in the wrong gender.

“You’re welco, ” Qiao Yue said in a calm voice. “It’s nothing. I just wanted to help Boss Chu regain face. It’s not because of you.”

The girl’s face turned pale because of Qiao Yue’s emotionless words. She was very beautiful and had never been rejected so ruthlessly by a boy. Her eyes quickly welled up with tears that were about to fall.

Qiao Yue was most afraid of girls crying and she had to coax them. She quickly said, “I still have things to do. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave.”

After saying that, Qiao Yue turned to leave, without giving the girl a chance to speak. But he heard the girl shouting behind him, “Mr. Qiao, I’m really grateful for what you have done. Even if you didn’t do it for , you still saved . I want to express my gratitude to you.”

Qiao Yue’s heart was like a herd of alpacas galloping. There was only one thought in her mind, “Please don’t say it.”

Just as the girl was about to speak and Qiao Yue ready with an outright rejection, a heavenly voice rang in Qiao Yue’s ears.

“Why are you standing here? And not going ho?”
